Spooky Resort in Nan!

We have many days in the North, so today we decide to explore a sleepy Province , Nan. As far as I'm concerned, this town is basically Temples and mountains. From Chiang Mai a total distance of approximately 305 KM.

      After researched, we check in to a beautiful resort name Sasidara resort. This is one of the better one located deep in a soi in Nan. But something creepy happen during the 2 nights stay. As soon as we checked in to the big room, we both felt that "Somebody's watching us throughout "

  As you can see the Hotel interior and exterior, it's beautifully co ordinate with both natural and ancient taste. We chose to stay in the Biggest room, the whole area belongs to us. It's that we can rarely enjoy this sort of natural environment in Singapore....Well, it's a nice idea and it's so "private", it's like the Whole place belong to us. But night falls, it's a different story..........


     Here it goes, first, the resort is in between of a padi field, at night, Frogs  Ribit-ing non stop. The room turns creepy and it's totally dark. As the room is made of wood, lanna style , it's so obvious that we can feel every tiny movement in the night. Like  the Wind Howl the wooden windows and doors making spooky noise , Stray Dogs Howling in the Dark, eeerie. Me and wifey had a long first night. We both knew somethings watching us and we try to pretend we were asleep. Bladder's full but dare not walk to the bathroom to release. Enough is enough, wifey cannot stand anymore and courageously wake up and run into the toilet......and me follow through!!!! Covering the Blankets and stick near to each other for the entire night, and I cannot remember when was the last time we hold hands and sleep!!



    Wifey dream t an old woman holding her late husband Photo in a big frame, telling her must pray her husband. What a dream, and the following day, we proceed to temple hidden in the forest for some donations. We bought rice, milk, oil and some other daily products for the poor in that village....after that we proceed to the famous temple name, Wat Phrathat Chae Haeng. And that particular night, we have a good sleep before checking out!! And it will be the first and last time visiting this resort.............



    ps: A local told us, while visiting or sleeping overnight at any place in Thailand, make a habit to visit the Spirit house aka (san phra phum Thai: ศาล พระภูมิ) and inform "them" that you just stay for a few days or nights. So "the owner" won't be "watching you" throughout.

Doi Inthanon - Thailand's highest peak

Since visited Chiang Mai, how can we missed out the Highest peak in Thailand? Book a resort stay over for a night. It's mainly for Photographing. I would love to take the shot of the Sun rise at the highest peak.


    So that night, we rest early in order to wake up just in time for the Sun rise shot. A little disappointed though, it came out not what I expected....................... and then check out the resort follow through the next itinerary in the North!
